I was very impressed by other reviews and decided to purchase these tires. I have not been disappointed. It was easier driving in the snow. I had good traction and was able to get through a couple inches of snow easier than the stock tires. Driving in rain is also good. I haven't felt the hydroplaning like I did with the stock tires. It feels like the tires are making good contact with the road. The ride is smooth and very quiet as well. I would most definitely purchase these tires again.
